Description

The Gap is a famous spot where at high tide the waves crash over the rocky ledge and form a perfect swimming beach. Descend down to the grassy area that leads to the blow-hole, a popular destination, especially at full tide. Be careful around the rocks there, they can be slippery. Accessible via the Tasman Lookout Path, a 2km path starting at the end of Marine Parade at Piha.
